What Is Memorial Day For

Remember and Honor: Memorial Day, a Day of Remembrance

Honoring the Fallen

Memorial Day, a solemn and heartfelt holiday observed on the last Monday of May in the United States, pays tribute to the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice while serving in the nation's armed forces. Originally known as Decoration Day, this federal holiday serves as a poignant reminder of the selfless service and sacrifice of our nation's military heroes.

We remember their unwavering dedication, their unwavering courage, and the profound void their loss has left in our hearts and communities. We express our deepest gratitude for their service and the legacy they have left behind.
